Pretty near = pert neer

Ya’ll say it any way ya want. I just know hedge burns hotter’n piss elm.

[Salamander]

They’re not bad considering peanuts are a legume just like beans.

There’s a fine line between some areas of the south and others. My parents were from Arkansas, where y’all = you’ins.

[Flaming Conservative]

I still say tennis shoe. Upper Midwest. Nobody called them sneakers. That’s an East coast affectation.

[Salamander]

Become one of the walking dead.

Numb emptiness punctuated by sudden crying jags.

Wish I knew someone who could deal with Boo if something goes bad.

I’ve always been self contained and content with my own company but I’ve lately discovered loneliness.

I do not like it at all.

It’s alien and it hurts.

Thank God I have all y’all.

[Chode]

prayers up, God bless...

[Salamander]

Westward highlands its cryon and wut’r
We don’t really talk about tenus over much.

[Salamander]

Pert near, mebbe.

[Salamander]

None of us played tennis so we had to call em sump’n.

[Salamander]

Thank you my friend.
I desperately need them.

“Tennis shoe” sounds like the affectation.

If you don’t play tennis, they are just sneakers.

[Flaming Conservative]

Around here, people go to a sangin’ wunst a month. Yer post to, if yer serious ‘bout church.

[Flaming Conservative]

Never heard about sneakers growing up. Even our gym teachers called them tennis shoes. Some kids did play tennis though; they have tennis courts at a lot of the city parks.y

I liked his version of Noah’s Dove.

The chest of drawers is really a “chiffarobe.”

We’uns just call em women’s unmentionables or intimates if they kept in the privy.

Well, when I was a little kid, I used to listen to "The Hillbilly from South Philly" DJ on the radio, but I can't help you with any Hillbilly words or pronunciations.   But for any who might not know, I can help you learn a little about the term "Pappy's Corn Squeezin's" (aka "White Lightning").   Just listen to this old song.
